According to the definition in the last source that you quoted, if parts of the houses (not the garage) are linked (e.g. bedrooms) then it is NOT "link-detached" but semi-detached, or even terraced.

"Link detached" is the normal term for that kind of arrangement. The
linking building is more commonly at ground level (often a garage that
extends to the property boundary), but it can be at an upper level as
well. Where it is an upper level, it's often the result of retro-fitting
an upstairs bathroom to a row of originally detached houses by means of
filling in the gap between them.
